Nicole Stevenson: "Is it good to be back swimming 400im?"
Matt: "It is actually. I'm very rejuvenated as I said this morning with my swimming at the moment. My speed in the freestyle isn't quite there, but I've got a week until the world short course, and hopefully I can pick it up there."
Matt being interviewed by Nicole Stevenson at the Australian Shortcourse 1999.

Nicole Stevenson: "Well Mr Dunn, Mr Dunn. Jani Sivenen put out the call in Hobart, and you've come out in the 200im. How good was it to have a victory is this pool against such a class field?"

Darryl Sommers: "They must have been so proud of you at the short course championships when you came home in record time in that medley."
Matt: "Yeah, they were absolutely rapt, and I suppose good payment for them. All their support over the years has been fantastic."
Darryl: "I mentioned that mystery medley before, and that's your event isn't it?"
Matt: "Yeah, it certainly is. The mystery medley consists of a totally changed order, so I'll actually be starting with butterfly, breaststroke, freestyle and backstroke I think. I'll have to look at that one more time. But everyone's swimming different strokes at different times, so I'll be going out hard and see what I've got coming home."
Matt talking to Darryl Sommers on Hey Hey It's Saturday about the Qantas Skins.

Duncan Armstrong: "What are you doing? Move boy"
Matt: "Yeah, they always say that. Or 'kick your legs'. I lost a bit of rhythm at the start of the race. I got it back in the end. I'm pretty happy with that."

Nicole Stevenson: "4:06.05 is a pretty respectable time."
Matt: "Yeah it is, I think it's the 3rd fastest time I've ever done, so I'm just rapt with that. I actually thought I went out a bit fast, but I think the other guys went out too slow"

Duncan Armstrong: "How much did it mean to you to get the double as well?"
Matt: "It's something that I don't really think about before the race, but obviously it's a great thrill. I don't think too many people have done that considering there's only been 4. It's fantastic."
Duncan: "Well, well done mate, congratulations from all the connections in the family home."
Matt: "Yeah, Hi everyone."

Matt: "I just can't believe that time. I just went in and swam my own race. Gennadi said swim it as a 150 and whatever you've got left, make it home."
Nicole Stevenson: "Gennadi's been a great influence on your career over the years. This success is mainly due to him and your own hard work"
Matt: "Yeah absolutely. Everything's been going just great. All the decisions I've made have come off really nice. Like the world record the other night. That just tops it off. I can't believe it."

"Doesn't matter what order you swim it in"
Matt: "I just have to remember what the order is, that's the only problem. It was a good time for the amount of training I've done the last couple of weeks."
"In some ways, you guys have got it easy because apart from mixing up the order of the strokes, at least you guys don't have to sprint, take a rest, sprint take a rest."
Matt: "Yeah, I agree totally. I think the 400 guys have got the tough job later tonight."
